“First and foremost I would like to thank God for keeping Juan Manuel Márquez and me safe during our fight on Saturday night,” said Pacquiao. “I want to congratulate Juan Manuel. I have no excuses. It was a good fight and he deserved the victory. I think boxing fans who watched us were winners too.

“To all my fans, I would like to thank you for your prayers and assure you that I am fine. I am looking forward to a nice rest and then I will be back to fight.

“On behalf of Jinkee and our family we would like to wish everyone a joyous Christmas and a happy and healthy new year.”

The "Jolt Counter" is specific counter that is accomplished by putting the entire body-weight of a fighter behind a single punch. Miyata Ichiro used this technique in desperation against Jimmy Sisfar. When used as a counter, this is extremely effective...and dangerous. The "Jolt Counter" was successful and ended the match in dramatic fashion of K.O. for the foreigner Miyata.
